Give me a story for returning my PS2
« on: December 20, 2001, 08:00:19 PM »
I wanna get a replacement(x-changing it at K-mart) tomorrow but don\'t have a good story.  I could wait til the 26th saying it was a present, but I\'d rather not go to the store on the 26th.  Any good ideas?

I tried some B.S. story and got the boot, believe me without a receit they will look at you like your crazy, going the 26th will give you a much better chance of exchanging it

What\'d they say to you?  Just that they can\'t take it without a receipt, or just say that your\'re lying?  And did you ever end up returning it someplace else?

They just said I need a receipt, and I ended up springing some money for a laser lens cleaner and it fixed my problem so I\'m all good

Im in the same situation breathout... Seems I have to return my Ps2. I have a problem Ive never been able to fix and Ive tried everything! Im gonna try and take it back on the 26th.
Im very skeptical tho, cause I know Im getting 007 and J&D for christmas.. I dont want to end up without a Ps2.. Ill be so ****ing pissed. But what the hell can I do, its either spending 120 bucks for some stupid **** and I wont even get my Ps2 back for another 8 weeks or try to take it back. What the ****!!!!! Sony really ****in pisses me off! Bastards. :rpissed: :evil:

I mean, what could they really do?  All PS2s have the same UPC code so I don\'t think they could find out that you didn\'t purchase from them.  Some advice though: check out and see if your box is identical to the others that they\'re selling, taking off any stickers on yours that shouldn\'t be there.

You say -
"Hi I wanted to return this."

They say -
"Why?"

You say -
"I need the $300 for my valtrex prescription over in the pharmacy department."

All you have to say is I got it for my birthday last month and it stoped working. They let you exchange it and give it back to sony as a defective item and get the money back. Easy as pie.

tell the person behind the counter that you know where they live and that you know how to make a bomb. Ask them if pissing off "harry the electronics department assistant manager" is worth their family\'s life...

whoa, I need to get out of work and down a few pints....

cheers guys, happy xmas n- stuffff    ;)

My goodness! That sounds like a great idea...


BTW - Don\'t they check that sticker to see if it\'s on? The one that if you rip it... It voids your warrenty?
.... take the skin and peel and back...

now doesn\'t it make you feel better?

If you talking about the sticker on the outside of the box then, you dont have to rip it to get it off, just be real careful.
